Phantasy Star Portable demo released for PSP

[alentris]

This demo isn't going to be released in english, unfortunately. Hopefully the game is, though. It looks fantastic.

OK – so I have questions.

First, I have 4.01 m33-2 or whatever the newest CFW is. I found a torrent with the Japanese demo. If I DL that, it should work, correct?

Also – if I play this demo on the multi-mode and raise a character…And just keep raising him/her…It sounds like I’d be able to transfer this character to the full version when it’s released, right? Any thoughts as to if this character will be transferable to the US release?

I’m like, going seriously crazy about this release. I haven’t been this excited about a video game since the original Fable (I preordered it over a year in advance, and was let down hugely, but still loved the anticipation!) or PSU’s release (I wasn’t as happy with it as I was hoping, but since I had been playing PSO since DC v1, I was soiling myself with anticipation).
